I saw my new hepatologist last week. She said that I don't have any any varices although my previous endoscopy showed very early varices. She said I was okay to fly long haul and just get on with my life. She has booked a couple of tests but said I would just be monitored by the liver nurses and don't need to see her again unless I deteriorate. I've decided to stop using any liver forums as it makes me think about cirrhosis constantly.
I really appreciate all your help and support over the last year, you are all wonderful people. I hope you all stay well and continue to help people that are looking for help.
Take care all of you. Debx ๐

I will miss you but cant think of a better reason for you to be leaving the forum. You have been through the doldrums big time and its just wonderful that you have been told you can get on with living not worrying and wondering. Have an amazing travel time !
